SIEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 284,410, dated September 4, 1883,

' Application filed June 22,1883. (No model.)

appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,

which form a part of this specification, and in which I Figure l is a perspective view of our improved extensible window-screen.- Fig. 2 rep'- resents the two parts or sections of thescreen taken apart. Fig. 3 is a crosssection through the screen and screen-frame, and Fig. 4 is a detail view of the guide-rod with one of its eyes. i I

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Our invention has relation to extensible window-screens adapted to be fitted into window-casings of different size; and it consists in the improved constructionand combination of parts of a screen of that class, as hereinafter more fully described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, A and B are the two parts of the screen-frame, which slide upon each other, and O is a wire screen. The parallel top and bottom rails of frames A and B are grooved or recessed, as shown at D,

- grooves D D in the frames.

H is a metallic rod, which is bent at one end to form a hook, I, which is inserted into the 0 hole or. channel J, formed by the union 'of the There are two of these rods, which are inserted through the eyes F, so that in extending the frame these eyes will slide upon their respective rods. By 5 this construction it will be seenthat the two extensible parts are firmly connected by the guide-rods H H, but in such a manner that r they will easilyslide upon each other in adjusting the screen to the window-casing.

If it is desired to separate the two parts A and B, the eye-plates E F nearest the hooked ends of the rods are removed by withdraw ing their holding-screws G, after which the rods may readily be slipped out of the hole J in the screen-frame and the eyes F, after which the two parts A and Bwill comeapart.

Having thus described our invention, we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States- The combination of the frames A and B, having grooves D, and provided with the eye-plates E F, and the guide-rods H H, fastened at one end in the frame A, substantially as and for the purpose shown and set forth.

In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereunto affixed our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
